Retaining Ring
SAF-Holland

A retaining ring that secures components within grooves to prevent axial movement in SAF-Holland assemblies. This ring functions as a critical fastener retention device, ensuring that shafts, pins, or assembled components stay aligned and do not migrate under load or vibration. By providing a simple yet robust axial retention solution, it supports reliable operation of rotating or sliding elements and helps maintain prescribed end positions during actuation cycles. VMRS code 016-015-037 places it in the retaining and securing hardware category, while category 42837 groups it with other retention and snap components used across mounting and linkage mechanisms. In practice, this ring improves serviceability by enabling quick assembly and disassembly without sacrificing security or performance. The part's presence within the SAF-Holland catalog underscores its importance for maintaining proper fit, reducing the risk of loosened parts, and preserving the integrity of critical interfaces in commercial vehicle applications.
